Inside Government with PoliticsNY: A Q&A with Assembly Member Michael Novakhov
"I'm proud to have introduced Assembly Bill A05179, which requires all vehicles that are capable of traveling over 25 miles per hour to be registered and licensed with the Department of Motor Vehicles. This bill addresses the rise in unregistered mopeds causing accidents and safety issues across the city. By closing this loophole, we're making our streets safer and ensuring all motorized vehicles are held to the same standards of accountability and regulation."
"SNAP benefit theft is a serious issue in our district. Our office helps victims deal with the problem of stolen benefits and pushes for systemic change. I sponsored Bill A08197 to require warning signs at food retailers and mandate chip-enabled payment systems to prevent EBT skimming. I also co-sponsored Bill A01318 to create a state SNAP minimum benefit, ensuring low-income families receive stable support even when federal aid falls short."
Michael Novakhov represents the 45th Assembly District in Brooklyn, covering Sheepshead Bay, Midwood, Manhattan Beach, Gravesend, and Brighton Beach. He introduced Assembly Bill A05179 to require registration and licensing for vehicles capable of traveling over 25 miles per hour to address unregistered moped accidents and safety issues, closing a regulatory loophole. His office provides constituent services for housing, benefits, public safety, and more, maintaining an open-door policy with appointments and walk-ins and assisting with agency navigation and neighborhood concerns. SNAP benefit theft is a major local problem; he sponsored A08197 for retailer warning signs and chip-enabled payments and co-sponsored A01318 to create a state SNAP minimum benefit.
